lyrics

It's 12 o'clock and the circus breaks
I took my lover to the vending gates
What's for sale? Popcorn, whiskey shots two-for-one
We drank, and I paid

And you wouldn't know me now

On Sunday mornings I'm called
To the corner church's bell toll
And I'm sure to take the concrete way
While every bone in my left foot breaks
The choir sings till I cry
Hallelujah! fists and knives
Bruised knees on wooden planks

And you wouldn't know me now
I'm stranger somehow

The sun's down on the perfect day
A 45 and some loose change
We shuffle in to the big top
Pay the man and the show starts
He said come and I came

And you wouldn't know me now
I'm stranger somehow
